[Year 12 SofDev] U4O1 Task 2 - Report/Test

[Christophersen, Paula P]

Dear colleagues



The key skill associated with user documentation states that a student must use software to create user documentation, hence it would not be a test. The test or written report relates to the legal requirements and security. So this means that task 2 in effect has two components: user documentation, and a test or written report focusing on security and legal requirements.



Regards

Paula

The top score descriptor for Task 2 includes the following:

“User documentation is appropriate, logically sequenced, complete and accurate. Presentation is clear and consistent with generally accepted conventions.”

Could it be a test would make it hard to deliver this ?

I'm doing a report.  I had a good reason at one stage, but I can't remember it now  ;-)

Thanks for that, Mark. No matter how many marks for user doc, I reckon it must be a really focused task for the user doc. I'm thinking of a trouble-shooting guide for a specific process in my case study. Something short and sweet. Are you doing a test or a report for the security/legal?

For me, 10 for user doc. 5 for security/legal.  Pennypinching, I know, but there's little choice...

Task 2 has only 15 marks out of 60 and some marks go to the user
documentation. What are people doing for the breakdown in marks with
Task 2? The user doc can't be a big task -- but that's OK. And the
remainder of marks are split between security and legal.

Is it better to have Task 2 relate directly to the case study and SRS of
Task 1? Or to have these marks on a new topic(s)?

Report? Test? Any ideas?

Maggie
